Greenhouse Heating Systems

Creating the ideal temperature within a greenhouse is pivotal for successful plant growth, yield, and product quality, and it is especially important to align this temperature with local climatic conditions. To ensure that the air, soil, and plant temperatures in the greenhouse are in harmony, precise planning and effective heating systems are indispensable.

Strategic Planning for Greenhouse Heating Systems

In greenhouse cultivation, maintaining optimal ambient temperatures significantly influences the outcome of your agricultural endeavors. Achieving the best results from greenhouse-grown products requires careful consideration of low-temperature periods and the implementation of a robust heating system to uphold a stable heat balance.

Determining the Heat Requirements for Greenhouses

Calculating the heat loss in the greenhouse during the winter heating season is the initial step in determining the heat requirements. Heat loss is a prominent concern and is attributed to several factors, primarily during the cold months.

Greenhouses are equipped with multiple layers of cover materials to mitigate heat loss through conduction. Nighttime heat loss is further curtailed through the use of heat curtains.

It's essential to recognize that greenhouse heat loss typically transpires through two main mechanisms: conduction from the cover material and heat carried away by escaping air. Additionally, some heat loss originates from the greenhouse floor and surrounding walls. While these factors are often overlooked in full-crop greenhouses, they play a crucial role in the overall heat balance.
